Summary of the contracting process

Tower Hamlets has procured a concession service to install, maintain and operate 23 electric vehicle charge points with built-in digital advertising screens. The chargers are intended for key destinations across the London borough, combining public charging infrastructure with digital advertising. The requirement covers electrical installation, associated equipment and ongoing operation, as well as advertising and marketing services. It is a borough-wide service delivered in London. The buyer is Tower Hamlets, a sub-central public authority. The procurement is primarily for services and includes public utilities, transport-related services, electrical installation and advertising operations. A single supplier is responsible for the complete requirement rather than separate suppliers for different elements.

The procurement is complete and has reached award stage under an above-threshold open procedure for a concession contract. One lot was awarded to JOLT CHARGE LIMITED. The award date was 28 July 2026, with an awarded value of £15,000,000 excluding VAT and £18,000,000 including VAT. The award remains pending during the standstill period, which ends on 27 August 2026. The awarded contract period is 20 November 2026 to 19 November 2041. Four valid bids were received, all from SMEs. Evaluation weighted price at 60%, including a 20% turnover percentage score and 40% site charge, quality at 30%, and social value at 10%. Participation required legal, financial and technical capacity.

This procurement demonstrates substantial, long-term demand from Tower Hamlets for integrated electric vehicle charging and digital advertising infrastructure. A credible future competitor would need to deliver the full service as a single operating proposition: electrical installation, deployment and maintenance of multiple charge points, reliable public-facing operation, and management of built-in advertising screens. Relevant capability in transport infrastructure, public utilities, electrical and mechanical equipment, advertising sales or digital media operations would be valuable, either in-house or through clearly managed delivery partners. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate legal, financial and technical capacity, and show how they would provide social value alongside service quality. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, indicating that specialist providers or well-structured consortia could compete.
